Hendley v. Mayor of Griffin

Fish, J.

Sallie A. Hendley sued the Mayor and Council of Griffin for damages, which she alleged resulted to her from personal injuries received in crossing a defective bridge in that city. After plaintiff’s evidence .was submitted, the court granted a nonsuit, and she excepted. The declaration set forth a cause of action, and, in our opinion, the evidence introduced made out a prima facie case for the plaintiff. The court below, therefore, ought not to have granted the nonsuit.

Judgment reversed.

All the Justices concurring.
